Safety and Maintenance
Take care not to spill any food or liquid on the Xserve or other components. If you
Â
do, turn off the Xserve immediately and unplug it before cleaning up the spill.
Arrange for an Apple Authorized Service Provider to inspect or repair the Xserve.
Protect the Xserve and its components from direct sunlight and rain or other
Â
moisture.
Keep all ventilation openings clear and unobstructed. Without proper air circulation,
Â
components can overheat, causing damage or unreliable operation.
Protecting the Optical Drive
To keep the optical drive working properly:
In an emergency, you can eject a disc by holding down the mouse button as the
Â
system starts up. If no mouse is attached, you can eject the disc by using the front
panel controls to start up from the optical drive. For instructions, see the Xserve User
Guide on the Admin Tools disc that comes with the Xserve.
Whenever possible, eject the disc before shutting down.
Power Supply
The power supply in the Xserve is a high-voltage component that should not be
opened for any reason, even when the computer is off. If the power supply needs
service, contact an Apple Authorized Service Provider.
